Macbeth was the first play I ever read Picture Quote #1

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, creeps in this petty pace from day to day, to the last syllable of recorded time; and all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing Picture Quote #1

Is this a dagger which I see before me, the handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee. I have thee not, and yet I see thee still. Art thou not, fatal vision, sensible to feeling as to sight? Or art thou but a dagger of the mind, a false creation, proceeding from the heat-oppressed brain? Picture Quote #1

The professor who lectured on Shakespeare seemed to be entrapped in a grotesque, retrospective love affair with every one of Shakespeare's heroines. I think he even had a feeling that he could have made a respectable faculty wife out of Lady Macbeth Picture Quote #1

In the power and splendor of the universe, inspiration waits for the millions to come. Man has only to strive for it. Poems greater than the Iliad, plays greater than Macbeth, stories more engaging than Don Quixote await their seeker and finder Picture Quote #1

At 13, in my first year of Tonbridge, I went up for the part of Macbeth. I was up against the 17- and 18-year-olds, but for some reason I got the part. It made me incredibly unpopular with my peers, but it was the English and drama teachers who stepped in to save me when others wanted me kicked out of the school Picture Quote #1

When you are at the right age to play Hamlet you are still to young and immature to play it. It is much later, when you get the life experience and the emotional power, that you understand Hamlet or Macbeth Picture Quote #1

I want to play Eva Peron. I’ve already done a lot of Shakespeare, but I’d like to do Lady Macbeth Picture Quote #1

I did a production of Macbeth in the 1960s in which I had a swordfight in the final scene. But the blade fell off my sword just as I was stabbing the guy. I ended up having to hammer him to death Picture Quote #1

When I was 16, I played Macbeth at school and my English teacher said, ‘I think you may have acting talent. Try to get into the National Youth Theatre of Great Britain and see where you get.’ I wouldn’t have thought of that at all. I wanted to be a surgeon, but I wasn’t a clever man Picture Quote #1

How now! Here’s the smell of the blood still: all the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand. Lady Macbeth Picture Quote #1

Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him? - Lady Macbeth Picture Quote #1

Historically, Macbeth is one of the greatest kings Scotland ever had. He was on the throne for 19 years, and he simply has this dreadful reputation because Shakespeare manipulated history for the benefit of James I, who was paying him to write the play to blacken Macbeth’s name Picture Quote #1

If Shakespeare had to go on an author tour to promote Romeo and Juliet, he never would have written Macbeth Picture Quote #1

A great performance like Lady Macbeth may be forgotten. Writing endures Picture Quote #1

If you’re a woman doing classic theater, the big roles are often destroyers. I’ve played Hedda Gabler, Lady Macbeth, some of the Chekhovian heroines, Electra, Phaedra - they’re all powerful women, but they’re forces of negativity Picture Quote #1

I’m either the witch or Lady Macbeth of English politics, but someone gotta wear the pants in England when others wearing kilts Picture Quote #1

I’m just having a wonderful time. It’s an interesting thing that I’m very comfortable with this material and I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because I did MacBeth Picture Quote #1

I’d make a wonderful Lady Macbeth. I’ll wear a pair of platform shoes or something Picture Quote #1

I had been to see Macbeth at the theatre a night or two before and she reminded me of the faces rising out of the witches' cauldron Picture Quote #1

Be bloody, bold, and resolute: laugh to scorn the power of man, for none of woman born shall harm Macbeth Picture Quote #1

Methought I heard a voice cry, sleep no more! Macbeth does murder sleep! - the innocent sleep Picture Quote #1

When you're a young man, macbeth is a character part. When you're older, it's a straight part Picture Quote #1
